Microsof licenses
Aside from the standard licenses you receive when purchasing Microsof products, you can also choose to
have the sofware preinstalled on your purchased computer, and opt for a less costly Ofcial Equipment
Manufacturer (OEM) version of the sofware. OEM sofware licenses are legal, Microsof authentcated
products that, even though they are not delivered in-box, in most cases do come with an operatng system
CD.
Salland Computers is a Microsof Authorized Refurbisher (MAR). Therefore Salland can ofer preinstalled
Microsof Windows sofware on refurbished computers for very compettve prices. This sofware comes
with fully legal licenses and has a Certfcate of Authentcity (COA).

The COA is a label by which authentc Microsof Windows sofware can be identfed. The COA is visibly placed on the outside of the computer. A MAR COA label
has no product code - instead, the product code is sent as document (PDF-fle), on which additonal sofware COAs (Ms Ofce, etc.) are placed.
MAR Licenses can only be issued on refurbished computers. Microsof considers a computer to be refurbished if:
- The PC has been in regular distributon and has been used for a minimum of 6 months.
- The original motherboard or an identcal replacement is present in the computer (deviatons from the original motherboard are seen as a new PC)
- The original COA label is present.
Advantages of MAR commercial licenses are the considerably lower costs compared to purchasing a completely new sofware suite, and the security of legal
sofware with access to all available updates. As ofcial Ms Authorized Refurbisher, Salland Computers Technology is subject to quality requiremeSalland imposed by
Microsof, and can only issue licenses if Salland ofers protecton against username and password abuse. Microsof reserves the right to check this by means of audits.

hat the documentaton and packaging of retail versions are much more expansive, whereas it is sparse with the OEM to save costs.
